she lives in Brasil , came to visit ...had the shock then couldn't sleep without lecturing us... chalo apo apni soch

Waheguru ji showed me a beautiful vision today which I would like to share with you guys as it is too easy to give up hope looking at the general media a recent news report on the school http://fatehnewstv.com/schoolnoteacher.php see it doesn't take cash, just following Guru Ji's updesh

don't worry go according to rehit and Guru ji's hukham to understand what's in front of you ...I didn't give it a second thought when my Saas called us down at 2 in the morning and started bawling her eyes out because my hubby's dharda was parkash and full length and he had his full kesh on his head , that my three boys according to her were being treated unfairly because they had their kesh too . SOme things you just have to say ' Mum you want a cup of tea and a tissue ? No OK I'm going to bed then the kids got school tomorrow ' to.

Come on Guys, it's a simple case of Sikhi kehnouna saukhi aa , kamouni aukhi aa.... some points: 1. unrealistic expectations put in unmarried girls head by parents : A: after marriage you'll be free to do as you like ... no after marriage you will have double the number of elders to put their advice forward on how you should be. B: when you get married that partner will make a real effort to get to know you and support you , 8 times out of 10 he won't bother if he can get away with it (path of least resistance and all that) C: The love and sewa you give will be appreciated by your in-laws and they in turn will love you as their own beti , most bibian I know including myself just get tolerated and our giving never lessens only increases over the years D: Once you have Kids that will help solidify the marriage, that old chestnut has probably stressed out more marriages than anything else...if you are gonna spend life together make sure you are both at the same page. 2. Unrealistic expectations put in new sikhs heads A: amrit shak ke you will be unwavering in your faith , everyone has ups and down in their minds you just have to learn to accept that is the nature of life and carry on B: A Dastar will earn you respect from people , maybe some but not all, as it may remind them of their own lack and that may trigger lashing out C: Apney will understand support you, truth is if people are Punjabi first , no they will try to undermine you at every turn (even know one Singhni whose MIL was dastar wali too but was very against her doing her nitnem and wearing dastar D: As soon as you have amrit it will be so much easier to achieve spiritually , yes the road is less ardous because it is straighter but the effort and focus that is needed is more demanding on you at all times . Marriage is not the destination is the start of a new chapter of life just as much as becoming Amritdhari is not...but people get misguided and think well I'm putting effort in but no fruit yet , or in this case the fruit is less than desirable and give up ...in both cases I would say you have to consider that the old business has to be dealt with i.e. Karma then you will be free .We have the friends and families we have because of picchle lehne dehne just roll with it and when you get rough treatment pray for sabar and santokh and keep doing your best 'bure da bhale kar , gussa man na hundiay' as Gurbani advises. Look I know I am not a good person and outsiders get haraan about the nonsense I have put up with from my in-laws but if I behaved as they did where would my sikhi disappear to ? They may be stuck in the games that maya plays but that is their karam , I pray that they find the truth, happiness and not disturb my family's sikhi but I leave it to Guru ji to do the shifting of minds and hearts as My years of open-hearted sewa hasnt' moved anything along . Sure you have days you question why but then it passes when your kids give you the answer ...twenty years on ...it is still hard work but this is life , not a bollywood fantasy.

I agree that sikh mothers are not the same as the sikh mothers of the past , who didn't consider their children as their possessions but a special sewa to bring up the Khalsa ready to do battle against injustice. Those mothers would have the courage to be straight as arrow when the kids stepped off the path. These mothers are more worried about being seen as a friend by her kids , that's why you see mothers and daughters going to pubs and clubs together (facepalm) ap doob geh horaan nu kimme Khalsa banauna ? Them smiling and cooing when their kid removes his dastar, cuts his kesh and says 'wow mere munda kinna sohna lagda' bolstering the patit in his wayward path. Kitte oh Maava like Maharani Jind Kaur ji who on feeling the absence of a dastar and kesh on her son's head , told him that was the biggest hurt in her life to know that he had lost blessings of the Guru by becoming patit : not death of her husband, not the treachery of the dogras, the kidnap of her child, the imprisionment, the loss of her position and her eyesight BUT TO KNOW HER SON HAD LOST HIS SIKHI. Muslims are very very aggressive they teach their kids from age one to fight, to be tough, to have hatred against the kuffar....Apart for the hate element that is how we used to be 150 years back ...that is not that long ago three/four generations; it can be reversed but we have to act now , starting with the girls and boys in the school system :Bani, Kirtan: morals, ethics and martial arts .We can use our history to teach morals and ethics easily and give them someone to use as inspiration. Would online gatka lessons be a good bridging option from sikhi unaware to sikhi aware?

honestly speaking when I was in my teens if that Mother was daler like Mata Gujar Kaur ji or Sada Kaur ji , or spiritual like Mata Khivi ji I might have just put up with the son to have sangat of the Mother , and that's how Kaurs should roll...

Karnataka

Our Favourite Friend from Karnataka Dr Pandit Rao Dharennavar has done the sterling effort in Sewa and translated Japji Sahib and SUkhmani Sahib along with Zafarnama to Kannada so the school students in his home state can receive Wisdom from Guru ji https://www.facebook.com/BaruSahibHP/photos/a.312356885474161.72764.294820193894497/961462627230247/?type=1&theater

veer ji I am NOT dismissing Gurbani I hate the way that people have put money ahead of Guru ji but given the kind of deeply spiritual occurences that he, Maskeen ji has been party to , if he was a maili rooh he would not understand it . I cannot answer to his final judgement but as far as I understood he did not treat it as a means of building wealth. Others definitely controlled his output for their pockets , I remember when he passed PTC refused to release katha videos from 'gyan da sagar' series as it would effect their earning potential. That is what I meant ....many many kirtaniyas in your book have done ulangna of this updesh in mine too . Their name shouldn't even come into the equation but it is headline and the GUrbani Tuk is subheading on many a CD/DVD Cover. The best kirtan I ever heard was by a Gursikh bibi a few years older than me when I was a teen ...that love, that dard, that mittas and then she was off the stage and gone in the sea of sangat ...and that is a symbol of how it should be natural, and unassuming. I personally love giving away stuff: gutkey, Cds , Kakkars because the gift of bani and SIkhi is priceless.

AS far as Maskeen ji is concerned I do not think he sold out his sikhi ... just PTC and SGPC control a lot of the videos , gulshan kumar's firm recorded the CD sets of katha , but honestly it should be copyright free material anyhow .

veera The true Kaurs don't follow the herd anyway ...it's just these tragic girls who think aping lesser cultural values of the faithless is being'modern' and 'independent'. Hey sisters don't you realise you are catering to Men's lowest thought patterns and that too without requiring any form of commitment on their part. Being a Mummy's boy as a Sikh is manhood suicide, you are supposed to be a warrior not a simpering wreck who has to ask Mummy everything ...MAN UP THE KHALSA WAY!

Then all we need are people to volunteer to do the sewa of editing on other language subtitling How about collaboration with Jawaddi Kalan Taksal Gurmat Sangeet program and get them to film tanti saaz and jodi, pakwaj, tabla lessons and the channels could air programs taking place in India etc this would help those families who cannot afford raj academy lessons or are not near the other free classes teaching purataan kirtan techniques . Then those vids could be hosted for review online for worldwide sangat

first you are unpard because my initials are not JSV but JKV thus a female , second : you are the one who want to come here and slag off sikh women in general as being not worth the bother because of one person , since when was that in the context of what you started ? so addressing your point about those girls who are going astray: there are two issues through ignorance of sikhi they fall for MENs patter in general and do the unsikh behaviour of dating etc then on top of that they see unsikh like behaviour and hypocritical behaviour in the sikh guys where they date out of faith regularly and think what's the point of being good if these jokers can't follow the rules too? thus use it as a justification to misbehave . I'm not saying it is a correct way of analysing the situation on their part but seriously before pointing the finger at others one should make sure that one is following Guru ji's hukham which you have said you haven't and are still considering not following . You are happy to boast about your family and friends failure to follow Guru Gobind SIngh ji's hukham about not marrying muslims ...this is the same crime for which Akali Phoola SIngh administered Panj Piarey punishment on Maharaja Ranjit SIngh of whipping, then go on to say those girls who do fall for muslim guys are not worth putting straight . Then why should I bother listening to your words ?

veer why don't you do the sewa of buying for them a usb preloaded with audiobooks of Bhai Vir Singh ji and other mahan Gursikh vidhvans from www.sewastore.com and just show them how to click and listen , ehde naalon hor sauki rah hai nahin unless you make a reading date with them . five dollars for 29 books ....bilkul bargin ! I was finding it hard to get hold of some the titles in book form

you're talking about Harjinder Singh from hollllaaaand....lives in Saathall now, lovely guy, so relaxing in delivery... the message goes in without any pain ...deep thinker too. He knows a fair bit about the drinks and drugs life , lost his wife to drugs . He should be put into programs which talk about supporting sikhs who have gotten into that life and want to get out ...maybe phone in type where you have counsellors manning phones and the whole things linked into a full support and rehab network ...then I wouldn't mind the channel patting themselves on the back. If they don't have people able to come in to do live slots , they should have best of web katha/kirtan/vichar reels played into a show advertising content online for newcomers , maybe trending video channels , that kind of thing. Oh yes the channels should jointly buy up all the rights to Maskeen ji 's vids and katha tapes then edit in english translation subtitles , link in the different resources quoted by Maskeen ji possibly available online so peeps can read further.

there have been moments in Gurdwara kirtan programmes when I've seen real glaring mistranslations to english and it makes Gurbani sound loopy in the least and downright aggressive at the worst. Real sloppy mistakes .I thought people actually would pick on this and correct errors and omissions....but I guess I am too optimistic about the gun in others.

well it is not surprising to me they , the brahmins have been at it since Guru Nanak Dev ji's time . During the 100 year's of British raj the Brahmin's wheedled into power positions in the structure to avail themselves of opportunities to advise the gorey lok how to handle us and dismantle our power structures.

he is not a gursikh in any way shape or form ... he preachs a milgoba of different faiths since he feels he knows better Guru Nanak Dev ji he was guru to Harbhajan of Sikh Drama fame until they had a faling out as Yogi ji wanted to be his next -in -line but Virsa disagreed with the mixing of Tantric yoga into the whole shebang. So Harbhajan took his group of gorey students back to the US and started his own personality cult.

The other thing to note is the MO of SGPC what happens to jathedars who dare to oppose the agenda or speak the truth? they are fired ...that is what happened to Sadhu Singh who was jathedar then and the author of the letter denouncing Harbhajan as a non-entity

Harbhajan's brand of sikhi is called 'Sikh Dharma International' a whole lot of foolish gorey taken in by a dhongi baba and sold a crock of nonsense purporting to have roots in Sikhi and the false writings are still being generated by his followers to do thuggi of bhole Indian gursikhs of their daswand

thing is we know 3HO and 'sikh Drama International' is a RSS sponsored attack on sikhi saroop in the western world ...and this jathedar's letter was in response to Harbhajan's false claims that he was bestowed the title 'Sri Singh Sahib' by same jathedar and SGPC when it was not true I mean if such a huge Gursikh as Bhai Sahib Vir Singh who do so much sewa for the panth only got the title 'Bhai Sahib' who in the hell is this fake who has continually bigged himself up as being higher or better than 10 Guru Sahiban to claim a title such as 'Sri Singh Sahib....sikh leader of the Western Hemisphere'?

it is the real deal as I saw the whole letter in another place and if the letters are for out of India they are written both in English and Gurmukhi ...jathedars are educated to some level you know

Guys SikiWIki is run by Harbhajan's gang so everything is warped to their tastes ... we should correct each and every inaccuracy also discard Sant Singh Khalsa's translations of Guru Granth SAhib ji as it too is altered to back up yogi claims http://www.sikhfreepress.org/headlines/2667/american-yogis-distort-sikh-scripture Given that so many sikhs are relying on apps and software which use this corrupt english translation surely this is a number one concern as it is a direct attack on young sikhs faith and knowledge : taken from link above: Distortion around the world Whether it’s Yogi Bhajan’s sikhnet.com, sikhitothemax.com, srigranth.org, searchgurbani.com, khojgurbani.org or SGPC.net, all of these websites use the same translation by Sant Khalsa. For those who do not frequent the Internet, Sant Khalsa’s translation can be seen at many gurdwaras in the United States and around the world, even Darbar Sahib in Amritsar. Projected high on large electronic screens during Gurbani kirtan, the shabad is displayed one-line-at-a-time in Gurmukhi, sometimes with the phonetic English transliteration below it, but always with Sant Khalsa’s English translation underneath. While Indian-born Punjabi-speaking Sikhs follow the shabad written in Gurmukhi, English-only-speaking Sikhs and non-Sikhs read Sant Khalsa’s translation to understand the Guru’s Message. Gurmat camp teachers and Punjabi class teachers also use the Sant Khalsa translation to instruct Sikh youth. Yogi Bhajan’s disciples from sikhnet.com reference this translation in their youth camps, which are held in the yogi’s ashrams, and now also in Sikh gurdwaras. are there any other pre Sant SIngh translation which we can use as is a panthic problem now.

doesn't matter whether she will or not he is being a total hypocrite be picking out of faith women to associate with

it is phokat karam wale men like you that turn our girls off from sikh men ...instead of blaming others for the situation why don't you look at what you sound and act like ...where did you hear it was desirable for SIkh men to behave like you? I'm interested since you have no sharam about openly stating intent to reject all sikh girls yourself .
